kadavu Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Well despite the very poor conditions we had over the 3 days the secret spot still managed to produce landing 10 fish and keeping 6 with the largest going just over 6kg. Due to the strong wind we had over the whole weekend it wasn't as easy to keep on top of the fish but it was a welcome change from being stuck at home as we hadn't been away since Christmas time. Overall a very fun but wet weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaffsta Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Well done mate glad you got onto some nice fish, you will eat well to, what bait did the damage ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kadavu Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 The red things are the stomachs of the fish when they suffer from barotrauma it happens to them We caught them most on dead yellowtail but we lost some larger fish on squid as well so a bit mixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Incredible Hull Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Well done. What the heck are those red things hanging out of their mouths? Not entirely sure but I think its the swim bladder. Its used so the fish can float up or deflate down. I seen the guys on the fishing shows pop it before sending the fish back in the drink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbf1 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Nice fish well done. What bait done the trick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam bros Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 awesome haul there and that red thing is its swim bladder, when you bring up a fish from deep water (more than 10m) their bodies cant adjust quick enough to the change in pressure as they are brought to the surface of the water. This results in a release of gases in the swim bladder hence the very enlarged swim bladder http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/fisheries/recreational/saltwater/catch-and-release#Barotrauma cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kadavu Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Squid and yellow tail worked best didn't have the freshest bait on us this time though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
